Abbas Demands: Now Release Fatah Terrorists
Arutz Sheva ^ | 21/10/11 | Maayana Miskin

Days after the mass release of hundreds of terrorists in exchange for Gilad Shalit, Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas has released a surprise demand, and is calling on Israel to release 1,000 more.

Abbas claims that former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert promised him that if Israel were to free Hamas terrorists in exchange for Shalit, it would also free Fatah terrorists, in order to avoid hurting Abbas’ political standing. In an interview with TIME Magazine, Abbas said the deal was kept secret so that it would not affect negotiations for Shalit’s freedom.

Olmert promised not only to free more terrorists, but to free “more” in terms of both numbers and “quality,” a term usually used by the PA to mean terrorist leaders and those with significant time left in their sentences.

Sources close to Olmert admitted Friday that the former prime minister had indeed made a commitment to Abbas, and had planned to release roughly 550 terrorist prisoners loyal to the PA chairman.

There's just one problem, though: Olmert. Is. Not. Prime. Minister. Now. Is. He?

We can release them, just like Mel Brooks as Louis XVI in History of the World Part I, skeet shooting with live peasants. Each one counts as a release. But Amnesty International might say bad things about us, so forget it.

Re:Israel responding to Abbas:

Like Goldmember to Austin Powers in Austin Powers 3: “So, there’s just no pleasing you!”

Give him a blintz and then pancake Hamas.

Stomping the lead cockroach is insufficient.

Israel must learn to hit harder at each provocation.
Bringing a fly swatter to a locust invasion is of no merit.

If another Israeli soldier gets kidnapped Israel should target the leaders of Hamas, Fatah and the palestinian authority.
Enough is enough, Whack em.

“If another Israeli soldier gets kidnapped Israel should target the leaders of Hamas, Fatah and the palestinian authority.”

No. They should target their families, including those living the good life in France. That is how the Russians dealt with the terrorists.

Isn't it at least a pro forma requirement to take a few hostages before you make extortionate demands? I mean if fercockta Shalit deal doesn't encourage hostage taking, I cannot imagine what will.

You are correct and I’ve said this same thing many times in the past.
They should go after terrorists mothers fathers brothers and sisters, dogs cats and gold fish Grandparents and anyone who may have aided and abetted.
Bulldoze each of their homes and leave a warning sign that this is what becomes of terrorists .
And wonder of wonder, the vast majority of this terrorism would be halted is a flash.

More than fair.
Just wait until mall and subway bombings come to the U.S.,
or maybe a bilogical by some of these nut jobs.
Fair? More than fair.

It was a horrible strategic move. One that puts all the Israeli soldiers at greater risk.

Israel needs to rethink things.

If the Arabs croak him themselves and Hamas takes over, then we can claim that Oslo is dead, dead, dead, and have an all-out assault on Hamas, send them to Antarctica and leave them there.

Hamas finds this demand unacceptable. If all Jooos! leave Israel, they will have to hunt them down.

In an effort to compromise and reunite with Hamas, Abbas demanded that all Jooos! drink Drano and feed it to their children, in that order.

Hamas finds this demand unacceptable. All that would remain for Hamas would be to mutilate the corpses, if the Jooos! all kill themselves.

Screw that. Freeze their bank accounts so they can’t live the good life any more. Leave the families alone and watch how they agonize on TV about doing their own shopping at ordinary stores and having to compare prices, go out and work for a living, etc. It’ll be a new reality show: I Am the Wife of a Dead Terrorist. Please Help.
